Auteur: Baby X
With only three minutes left before the presentation began, Miranda stepped out from the restroom and immediately noticed Felix outside the lecture hall, finishing a phone call.

Their eyes met for a brief moment. Felix hung up and seemed ready to approach her, but Miranda quickly turned away and slipped into the lounge. Felix paused, then headed straight into the auditorium instead.

“Mira, it’s about time to go in,” James reminded her gently.

She nodded, straightened her clothes, and touched up her appearance one last time. The lipstick she had just reapplied gave her lips a fresh, delicate glow. With her youthful, striking face, she looked less like a researcher about to take the stage and more like a movie star heading for the red carpet.

“Everything all right?” she asked James with a smile.

“You’re perfect. Good luck! You’ll do great,” James replied warmly.

“Don’t worry. I promise I won’t embarrass Dr. Liam,” Miranda said with a light laugh. She picked up a pair of silver-rim

  • Mr. CEO, Your Ex-Wife Is Absolutely Killing It in the Research World!   Chapter 660

    Miranda had not even had the chance to say anything when Mia looked up at her with pleading eyes. “Mom, let Daddy stay and play with me.”Miranda had not slept well the night before. She nodded. “Okay.”“Daddy, what did you buy me?” Mia asked.“Building blocks,” Felix replied. “Daddy will play with you.”“Ma’am, what about lunch?” Mrs. Young asked quickly. Whether Felix stayed for lunch affected what groceries she needed to buy and how much food to prepare.“Daddy will eat lunch here,” Mia said brightly.Three pairs of eyes turned to Miranda at the same time. It felt as if the decision could only be settled with her approval.Seeing the anticipation in Mia’s face, Miranda finally nodded slightly.Mrs. Young immediately smiled. “Alright. I’ll go buy some groceries now.”Felix stayed in the living room playing with Mia. The two of them opened the box of building blocks together. Warm sunlight streamed through the window and cast soft, comforting shadows across the floor.Mirand

    Felix stood outside the courtyard gate, the night wind brushing against his tense face. He turned back and looked up at the lit window on the second floor. He then opened the car door and sat down in the driver’s seat.Upstairs, Miranda lay on her side beside Mia, reaching out from time to time to check her forehead. Mia did not have a high fever. Clearly, it was not an acute viral infection, just an ordinary cold. As long as her immune system was strong enough, the fever would come down on its own.Still, the lung lavage surgery Mia had undergone two years earlier kept Miranda constantly on edge. She knew that, medically speaking, it had been a minor procedure. At the time, it had also been the best way to completely clear the mucus from Mia’s lungs.Miranda’s thoughts were in disarray. As she kept thinking, she eventually fell asleep.*In the middle of the night, Mia choked on her saliva and let out a small cough. Miranda jolted awake at once and immediately checked on Mia. Feel

    Felix and Mia laughed together again. Mrs. Young watched the scene and could not help noticing it. At this moment, Felix no longer carried his usual sharp, commanding presence. He looked like a patient and gentle father.“Dinner is ready, ma’am,” Mrs. Young said.Felix carried Mia to the table and sat down. Taking advantage of being sick, Mia acted spoiled and said, “I want Daddy to feed me my pasta.”“Mia, eat by yourself,” Miranda said, frowning slightly.Felix picked up the utensils and said gently, “Okay. Daddy will feed you a few bites first, then you eat on your own, all right?”Mia nodded. “Then I’ll feed you too, Daddy!”They started playing one of their old games again, taking turns feeding each other.Miranda lowered her head and ate quietly. She had little appetite, her mind still fixed on Mia’s condition. She only hoped Mia would eat a bit more.After dinner, Miranda still felt uneasy and gave Mia some fever medicine. By nine o’clock, Mia had fallen asleep in Felix’

    Miranda returned home and went straight into the study. Mia and Airi were playing in the living room. Airi was like a thoughtful little companion, answering Mia’s questions one by one and making her laugh.At dinnertime, Miranda’s phone rang. She picked it up and glanced at the screen.Felix.She had no intention of answering and hung up right away.Soon, a message notification sounded. Feeling annoyed, Miranda picked up the phone again and checked it.“Mia has a slight fever.”Miranda’s breathing stopped for a moment. She stared at the message for a few seconds, then immediately stood up and went to the living room. She saw Mia curled up on the sofa, clearly lacking her usual energy. Miranda reached out and touched her forehead. It did feel warmer than normal.“Mom, what’s wrong with me?” Mia asked curiously.“It’s nothing. Mommy’s just going to take your temperature.” Miranda brought over a thermometer and held Mia in her arms while they waited five minutes. When she checked

    “Miranda may have given birth to a daughter, but she’s still Felix’s child,” Fiona said. “From what I have heard, he adores Mia.” She felt like she cared more about the situation than Xena did.Fiona had assumed that once Miranda divorced Felix, Xena would step right into the Gibson family and take her place as Mrs. Gibson. Yet now, there was not even the slightest sign of that happening.“I know what I’m doing,” Xena said as she set down her glass.Fiona grew frustrated. “You’re not even worried that Felix might still have feelings for her?”“Do you actually understand what kind of person Miranda is?” Xena asked, looking up.Fiona froze. She had never bothered to understand Miranda. In her mind, Miranda was beneath her. But Xena’s question forced her to think.What kind of woman was Miranda?Fiona finally gave her answer with a dismissive huff. “She’s arrogant, full of herself, and only gets anywhere because of her connections.”Xena’s eyes darkened, and she gave a faint smile

    The text message came from an unknown number, but the tone made it obvious to Miranda who had sent it. It was Xena.Miranda stared at the message for a few seconds before replying, “Then keep your dog on a leash.”A response came almost immediately. “Miranda, aren’t you scared I’ll forward this to Felix?”Miranda let out a cold laugh and typed, “Go ahead. Send it to him.”She tossed her phone onto the passenger seat, started the car, and pulled away from the curb.Fiona walked into a downtown cafe with her bag in hand. By the window, Xena lounged against the sofa, staring off at nothing. When she heard footsteps approaching, she lifted her head. Fiona’s entire expression was etched with frustration and bitterness.“What happened?” Xena asked.Fiona sat down and rubbed her temples. “We underestimated Miranda.”“On the phone just now, you told me Felix was holding her arm. Are you sure that is what happened?” Xena asked. She had come to confirm it herself.“I saw it with my own
